I’d assume it’s no longer available

The Craigslist ad is expired so I’d assume it’s no longer available. Some of the listing I post don’t last long.

Yup. Same engine.

If I remember correctly, when Jensen was building the Jensen Healey they went shopping for an engine, but didn’t have a lot of money to spend. Lotus sold them this “experimental” engine, which I believe was the first 2.0l 16v engine to make it into a production vehicle. After Jensen folded in 75/76 Lotus put it in the Espirit.

Some or all or the above may or may not be true
